Multimedia Designer — California
About
Long Beach, by way of the Bay.
I’m Bay Area born and raised, now studying Studio Art with a minor in Marketing at Cal State Long Beach. Going into college, I knew I wanted to do something creative and hands-on — that’s what pulled me toward art in the first place, and I’ve loved every chance I get to make and learn since.
When I’m not in the studio, I’m in the pool — I play on the Long Beach State Waterpolo team, which keeps me busy in the best way. Outside of that, you’ll usually find me at the beach, thrifting, or trying out somewhere new around town.
I am excited for what’s next.

Legacy Statement
I want to make it my life’s work to be known as someone honorable, dependable, and caring. I want to lead with integrity, honesty, and compassion, both for myself and for those around me. I work to be a trustworthy and impactful person: a supportive yet honest daughter, sister, and family member; a loving, accountable, and consistent partner as well as friend; a respectful and communicative employee and coworker; and someone who leaves a positive impression on everyone I meet. I want to leave every place better than I found it, using the skills, values, and awareness I have built that enables me to choose kindness in any circumstance.
I will always strive to be better, whether through my actions, work, communication, learning, or fitness. I want to be seen as a woman without limitations, someone who answers “you can’t” with “I will find another way.” I choose to remain a lifelong learner. My goal is never to be someone who “knows it all,” but someone who can see the whole picture and find compassion and understanding in it. I want each lesson to build on the last, creating a deep foundation of knowledge and ability that gives me the confidence to take on any task. I want to stay curious and always eager to lend a helping hand. Every day, I want to be seen as a leader not because of how loud my voice is, but because of how clearly my consistency and actions speak.
Throughout my life, I want to keep practicing gratitude for what I have been given, the people I have met, and everything I have been fortunate enough to experience. Most importantly, I choose to lead each day with love and understanding. I want to keep a true sense of self and take pride in how I conduct myself, even in the hardest circumstances. I want to be confident in myself and trust my abilities, using my gifts of resilience, creativity, and optimism to push further than anyone expects. I will live each day with intention on the road to success.
